Abstract
To date, traffic congestion has become one of the most urgent problems of traffic control on the road network of Astana. For many streets (avenues) of the city, the occurrence of systematic traffic jams is becoming characteristic. The increase in traffic congestion, high density and traffic intensity of vehicles reduce the efficiency of the road network, as a result, have an impact on the growth in the number of traffic accidents.It is especially acute in the nodal points (crossroads) of the road network. Here, transport delays increase, queues and congestion are formed, which causes a decrease in the speed of communication, unjustified excessive fuel consumption and increased wear of vehicle components and assemblies.In the context of a fund shortage in the city budget, one of the relevant ways to organize traffic is to increase the efficiency of traffic management.This article discusses the issues of improving the efficiency of managing a traffic light object at the intersection of Kabanbai Batyr and Uly Dala in Astana, in order to reduce traffic delays and ensure the best distribution of traffic flows.Conclusion: The results of field observations were obtained to determine the intensity of traffic during peak hours, the justification was given for adjusting the phase-by-phase passing scheme and the operation mode of the traffic light object at the intersection of Kabanbay Batyr and Uly Dala avenues, which will make it possible to identify a left turn with a change in the structure of the traffic light control cycle ensuring the best distribution of traffic flows.
